GM gives you their approved tune right from the factory.

A tune is simply an aftermarket reprogramming of the computer.

You can buy a Diablo or HP tuner program, and adjust each parameter yourself.

GM has the computer flash programmed exactly how they want it.

If they find a better way, (as far as they are concerned) they will issue new programming. (reflash)

It is designed for many purposes: Performance, emissions, driveline durability, etc.

When a car is tuned, or reprogrammed, it is violating GM's design, and therefore voids the warranty, if they want to.

There will never be a GMPP tune. It would be like the police selling burglar tools.
